The Way You Live Will Affect Others! by Myra Boozer

"Now Joseph was well-built and handsome, and after a while his master's wife took notice of Joseph and said, "Come to bed with me!" But he refused...He stated " how can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God. Genesis 39:6-9 NIV.

Have you considered the way you live your life will affect the lives of those around you? Joseph did...he stayed pure and true to God. He remained true to Potiphar, the Egyptian officer of the Pharaoh. God had a plan for Joseph. He has a plan for your life also. He wants to Bless you and your family. Stay true, no matter the temptations that may come your way. If falsely accused, remain true and pure.

God was with Joseph and He will be with you. Remember, being in prison was part of the plan. There Joseph had the opportunity to correctly interpret the King's dream and bring restoration to his own Family. You may not be able to look ahead and see how a critical moment of obedience fits into God's plan for your Life. But, you can pray for strength and a pure heart so that when that day may come, you will have the Power of God in you as Joseph did. Did you know that from the lineage of this Joseph came JESUS CHRIST? Wow, talk about affecting others.

When a person or a people do not remain Pure, they began to fall from within. It is horrible the sin that is being uncovered in Hollywood day after day. Some may have thought it would remain hidden forever but they had to live with the "not knowing" day in and day out. Now, that sin is exposed to all the world. Nothing is ever hidden from God and sin will always reap its just reward. This is the same lustful and sexual spirit that was on Potiphar's wife.

We can see that sin is running rampant today and is causing the decline of our world. What was once called evil is now called good and vice versa. BLESSED ARE THE PURE IN HEART FOR THEY WILL SEE GOD, Matthew 5:8. We must know the Word of God in order to know the difference between good and evil. It is very critical for you and your family and our World. Many are deceiving and being deceived in these last days before the return of Christ. Remember, the way you live your life will affect the lives of others and sin is never hidden from God.
